A.W. Responds To CM Punk Saying He Deserved To Be Fired For "Rape Joke"

TMZ.com released a video Thursday of CM Punk backing WWE's decision to terminate A.W.'s contract after he cracked a "rape joke" on the July 30, 2012 episode of Raw.

"He got fired. Yeah. He made a rape joke. I don't think—I don't like to see anyone lose their job, but if anyone is justified in getting fired, ya know, making fun of rape... I don't think that's funny," Punk said outside Mr. Chows in Beverly Hills, California on Wednesday night.

A WWE spokesman claimed to TMZ.com last week that it wasn't just the "rape joke" that cost A.W. his job, but rather "because he continued to exhibit poor judgment by making offensive and inappropriate comments on live television and on social media."

A.W. responded to Punk's remarks via Twitter, writing, "I see @ CM Punk has become a bit vocal in saying I should have been fired for an (Alleged) rape joke. Well then why wasn't Big Show fired?

"He wasn't fired because he draws more money than I do. With @ WWE it's not about Morals... It's about Money."

A.W. then posted multiple messages alluding that Punk is racist, based on Punk's cult-like savior character as the leader of the Straight Edge Society.
